Creator Terms
Your Content
You retain all rights to content you upload. By uploading, you grant us a license to host, display, and distribute your content as necessary to operate the service.
Revenue
We charge 0% platform fee on fan payments. Payment processing fees (~3%) are deducted before funds reach you.

Don’t upload:
- Content you don’t have rights to distribute
- Illegal content (varies by jurisdiction)
- Content that violates others’ rights
- Malware or harmful code
Content Moderation

Fan Terms
Purchases
When you buy content:
- You get a license for personal use
- You can download and keep files
- You can’t redistribute or resell
- One-time purchases: access persists even if the creator leaves (90-day download window)
- Membership-gated content: access persists during the 90-day grace period if a creator deletes their account. After 90 days, content is removed. Active memberships are not billed during this period
Memberships
- Billed monthly

Data & Privacy
See our Privacy Policy. Summary:
- We collect minimal data
- We don’t track you
- We don’t sell your data
- You can export or delete your data
Termination
By You
Cancel anytime. Export your data first. Creator memberships end at the billing period.
By Us
We may terminate accounts that violate these terms. We’ll provide notice when possible and allow data export for non-egregious violations.
Disclaimers
The service is provided “as is.” We do our best but can’t guarantee uptime, data integrity, or that you’ll make money. Back up your content.
Liability
Our liability is limited to the amount you’ve paid us in the past 12 months. We’re not liable for indirect damages, lost profits, or lost data.
The disclaimers and limits in this section do not override the specific commitments in What We Guarantee, including uptime, data preservation, backup, shutdown notice, and founder-pricing lock-in. Where this section and the Guarantees conflict, the Guarantees control.
Disputes
We prefer to resolve disputes directly. If that fails, disputes are governed by Colorado law and handled in Colorado courts.
Changes
We may update these terms:
- General changes: 90 days notice before they take effect
- Privacy policy changes: 90 days notice before they take effect
- Pricing changes: 90 days notice + grandfathering at current rate (see guarantees)
- Exceptions: Changes required by law, court order, or to address an active security threat may take effect immediately
We’ll notify you by email when terms change. Continued use after the notice period constitutes acceptance.
